OpalVision
James,
MakeAnim24 scales and converts a number of IFF files into the OpalVision
animation format. This format is not compressed, so it can be played back
to a high speed from memory as well as from hard drive.
A two pass spatial transform algorithm is used to achieve the best results
for scaling images.
All source frames have to be in IFF24 or JPEG format 24 Bit (allthough
IFF24 should be preferred to JPEG for speed reasons). The format should be
hires/interlaced (640*400) for best scaling results. In any case the
source screensize has to be the same or bigger than the size being scaled
to. Once again, it is recommended to start out with hires/interlaced
frames. The scaling algorithm produces best results out of big screen
sizes! The source screensize also should not exceed about 800*600 pixel.
Users with only two megabytes of memory will run into problems with larger
sizes.
Enlarging to a given size is not useful for this application and therefor
not included.
